PAGE4/THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN/APRIL 19,1979 It's Olympics day at WCU Special Olympics Old books can go on the market A new program designed to stimulate the supply of used books and give students an opportunity to re-sell some of their required texts will begin at the end of the spring semester at WCU in the Book and Supply Store. Under the buy-back program, the book store will query departments to determine which texts and supplemental books are to be stocked for upcoming terms. From the responses, a master list of books eligible for buy-back will be posted in the book store, book rental and University Center. The book store will buy books appearing on the list at 50 per cent of new retail price as established nationally. Books need not have been purchased at the WCU book store to be eligible, but books purchased from the WCU book rental are not eligible. To give students an opportunity to sell books not appearing on the buy-back list, a used book company will also have representatives on hand. Books to be purchased by the company will depend on marketability as determined by the company. The spring buy-back program will be from April 30 to May 4 for the book store. The used book company representatives will have representatives available May 2-3-4 only. Hours for both will be from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily at the book store. The Hunter Bros.
